Anyone have a standing desk recommendation between the Fully Jarvis vs Uplift V2 vs Autonomous Smartdesk 2? Leaning towards the Jarvis but the Autonomous one seems 50% cheaper, but can’t really tell what the drawbacks are according to their website/reviews

Jarvis is great. No ragrets

It’s the same ish, no?

We bought one from ikea and it works great. Inexpensive with a clean all white look.

I bought the Autonomous l shaped model. I was a little concerned since it was around a third of the cost of other brands but after a couple of months I have no complaints.

Not in my experience. It does wobble a little but I think that is common with most adjustable height desks. The L shape only came in white when I bought it and so far so good with regards to scratches. Also the power is fine. It move up and down without issues and I have a 34 inch monitor and a 27 inch monitor on it. It was a little bit of a pain to build, but not too bad. If have a second person help you when you flip it over you will be fine.

I am definitely glad I bought and saved around $800.

Uplift.

Love my uplift. I’ve had it for about 4 years now. I ordered a custom size to fit my office dimensions.

Bought the autonomous desk 4-5 years ago and have had no problems. Really glad I made the investment. So many other more expensive models out there.

Just got a Vari this week. No complaints. Should have gotten a standing desk years ago.

I ended up going with the Uplift a couple years ago and don’t regret it. Their customer service is fantastic too.

I've had an uplift for about 3 years. Like it a lot, no issues

I have SmartDesk 2. I customized the top myself. Dual motor (one motor in each leg). Very sturdy and love the heigh settings. Very happy with the purchase so far. Check out my review:
